Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

• Mike: $219
• Jake: $280
• Aaron: $235

Explanation:

One way to do this rounding is to add $0.50, then drop the decimal portion of the sum.

$219.49 +0.50 = $219.99 ⇒ $219 . . . Mike's price

$279.97 +0.50 = $280.47 ⇒ $280 . . . Jake's price

$234.95 +0.50 = $235.45 ⇒ $235 . . . Aaron's price
